How to Accelerate Your Tolerance Analysis | OpticStudio

June 15, 2016

OpticStudio provides highly flexible tolerance development and analysis capabilities. These tolerance capabilities incorporate the effects of manufacturing defects and alignment errors into an optical design. The tolerance analysis can be one of the most time consuming aspects of the design process, and may take longer than all of the other design stages combined!

In this webinar, we will share strategies for accelerating your tolerance analysis. This includes how to make intelligent design choices and how a tolerance analysis evolves. We will also demonstrate how the following OpticStudio tolerance features reduce computation time:

Paraxial Focus Compensation

Tolerance Cache

Polynomial Sensitivity
